Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, after adding the barrel light, although it can solve the problem of missing clothes caused by dim light, it cannot solve the problem of missing clothes caused by viewing angle problems (for example, the clothes stuck to the upper wall of the drum of the drum washing machine are still invisible)

Embodiment 1

[0041] Embodiment 1 is a washing machine control method. Wherein, the washing machine includes a controller and a scanning device and a reminder device connected with the controller. The scanning device is a radio frequency reader, which is installed near the washing machine's loading and unloading opening, which is convenient for scanning the clothes put in and taken out. Preferably, for the drum washing machine, the radio frequency reader is installed on the window mat; , the radio frequency reader is installed on the gimbal, and the identification range of the radio frequency reader is the space near the clothes pick-and-place opening of the washing machine; When the signal is received, the reminder device will remind the missing clothes to remind the user to take out the clothes left in the washing machine in time.

[0042] In addition, a timer is set in the controller. When the timer counts to a certain time and the controller judges that there are still clothes missing ...

Embodiment 2

[0056] Embodiment 2 is a washing machine control method. This embodiment is a parallel embodiment of Embodiment 1. In this embodiment, the structure of the washing machine is the same as that of Embodiment 1, and radio frequency identification tags are set on the clothes before the washing process. The difference is that an RFID reader is used to scan an RFID tag inside the tub of the washing machine.

[0057] Such as figure 2 As shown, the specific steps of the washing machine control method in Embodiment 2 are:

[0058] Step A1, after the laundry program is finished, the reminder device reminds the laundry to be finished;

[0059] Step B1. After the door opening action is detected, the controller controls the timer to start timing. When the timer counts to the predetermined time, the controller controls the radio frequency reader to scan the radio frequency identification tag in the washing machine bucket, and sends the scanning result to the controller ;

[0060] Step C...

Embodiment 3

[0066] Embodiment 3 is a washing machine control method. This embodiment is another implementation of Embodiment 1. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the scanning device is a barcode scanner. Before putting the clothes into the washing machine, first Check whether there is a barcode on the clothes to be washed, scan the barcode on the clothes to be washed by the scanning device and record the code of the clothes. The device compares the codes of the clothes put in and the codes of the clothes taken out, and judges whether there are clothes missing in the washing machine. The judging method is similar to that of the first embodiment.

[0067] In the control method of this embodiment, the codes of the clothes put in and the clothes taken out are recorded by scanning the barcodes one by one. Compared with the instant scanning record by the radio frequency reader in the first embodiment, the record of the clothes codes in this embodiment is more accura...

Abstract

The invention discloses a washing machine control method and a washing machine capable of achieving the control method. In order to solve the problem that after clothes washing is finished, partial clothes are missed in the washing machine for a long time, and abnormal smell, folds and the like occur, the washing machine control method and the washing machine are designed. According to the washing machine control method, the washing machine comprises a controller, a scanning device and a reminding device, clothes identification tags are arranged on the clothes to be washed, when a washing program is finished, the scanning device conducts scanning on the clothes identification tags and transmits scanning information to the controller, the controller judges whether all the clothes are taken out from the washing machine or not according to the received information, and if all the clothes are taken out, the washing program is finished, or the controller controls the reminding device to conduct clothes missing reminding. The method can ensure that a user can timely take out the clothes from the washing machine to conduct airing, and the problems, caused by the fact that the clothes are missed in the washing machine, of the abnormal smell, color changing, folds and the like are prevented from appearing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a washing machine control method and a washing machine for realizing the control method. Background technique [0002] After the clothes are washed, the user takes out the clothes from the washing tub. Sometimes there are too many clothes and needs to be taken out and dried several times, and the user easily forgets the remaining clothes that have not been taken out. [0003] In addition, after the washing machine dries at high speed, some clothes, especially small pieces of clothes, are very easy to cling to the wall of the drum. When the user takes out the clothes, sometimes they will not pay attention to the clothes that are attached to the wall of the drum, especially at night when the light is not clear. Down, harder to find. Among them, drum-type washing machines are more prone to missing clothes, because users usually only pay attention to the clothes within the viewing range when picking up clothes, and the blocked upp...
